Arabella And Beauty System
The Fall of the Victim Again

Arabella walked slowly towards the road back to her rental home. She had no intention of going home, but only avoided Sophia because Sophia was still at the stop.

"Why did I cry? Strange", Arabella said to herself, wiping her tears.

Drrt. drrt..

He felt his phone ring. Andrew called her. Arabella picked up the phone immediately.

"Hello?"

"Arabella, I'm sorry I couldn't go with you today. Let's just delay it first. I just got a sudden assignment. Next time, will you?"

"Good sir, no problem"

After that, the phone was closed.

Arabella let out a long sigh, then continued walking towards her boarding house.

The next day, Arabella as usual was ready to go to campus at 7 a.m.

He saw Andrew's car in his front yard.

"Arabella, I'm sorry. I cancelled our road last night" Andrew said as Arabella just entered the car door.

"It's okay, sir. I have no problem", Arabella smiled clumsyly.

The man looked at her intensely, and a moment later, the man put on a small smile.

"You're not angry, are you?" asked Andrew, drawing closer to Arabella.

Arabella reflexes away a little. But he kept a small smile.

"Ng. no really"

"You're not going to stay away from me just because of this, are you?"

"No, sir. Nope"

"Promise?", Andrew thrusts his little finger in front of Arabella. Arabella immediately returned the little finger with her little finger as well.

"Yes, promise"

When he reached the front yard of his campus which looked empty, Arabella walked slowly towards the second floor stairs. But before he really got to the stairs, his phone rang.

Nael called. Arabella picked up the phone immediately.

"Hello?"

"Arabella, you better ask about that second clue right now to the person who first found it" the man said from across the street.

"All right"

Phone's closed.

Arabella thought for a moment. He did not even know what the man who first discovered the second clue was in what class.

Arabella remembered for a moment her name. William Bram.

"Braw William, I need to find him right away"

*

At 09:30, at break time, Arabella returned from class to interview Bram William, the man who first discovered the second clue.

He managed to find it this morning after searching for the name Bram William in various classes. But he did not get to see the man.

Until the break came, Arabella invited the man to talk in a reclining chair in the front yard of the campus.

"Before, sorry because I arrived to invite you to talk here. I wanted to ask a few things about.", Arabella paused her sentence for a moment, because Bram was staring at her intensely, which made her a little groggy.

"You know? About that little letter in your bag. I found a little letter in your bag, and I suspected something about that little letter. I want to know where you got it" continued Arabella.

The man seemed to raise his eyebrows.

"Who are you? Why did you arrive wanting to know about the letter? I'm just answering to the police or the detectives"

"really? So.. do you intend to deliver the letter to the police station?"

"Hm. it seems like it is"

Then there was a momentary silence.

"Did you get the letter from the garbage can?", asked Arabella who made the gondrong man look surprised.

"Eh? How do you know that?"

"Just guessing".

The man frowned, then there was still silence between the two of them.

"Well, get home from this college. I'll wait for you to deliver the letter to New York's main police station"

When commuting time arrives, Arabella immediately exits the campus to the front stop of the campus. But before Arabella got to the stop, it happened to be through Andrew's car who was just about to pick up the girl.

"Hm. to meet the detective man?", asked Andrew.

Arabella thought that if Arabella talked about the police station, Andrew would question her about Nael.

"No sir, there's something important, really", replied Arabella seriously.

"All right, I'll take you"

Andrew finally wanted to be kind enough to drive Arabella.

Arriving at the police station, Arabella immediately saw Bram who had entered the gate. It turned out that the man kept his promise about the clue earlier.

Arabella breathed a sigh of relief as she felt that the second clue had fallen into the hands of an honest and obedient person.

"Thank you for coming here" Arabella told the gentleman.

The gondrong man turned his head, he looked in wonder at Arabella.

"You speak as if you were one of the gatekeepers here" said Bram.

"No, no, I'm not a gatekeeper. I just want to thank you for keeping your promise to come here. You're gonna tell me about that clue, right?"

"Eh? Who are you? Not the police, right?", asked the man.

"We should go inside immediately" Arabella said.

As Arabella walked into the entrance of the police station, the man tailed from behind.

When entering the first room, Arabella immediately found Mr. Hans, Mr. Steve, and Vilia.

"Oh, Arabella? What's coming here?", asked master Hans as he stood up from his chair.

Bram glanced at Arabella.

"The police know you?", Bram asked in a whisper. Arabella just nodded.

"Is he your father?", asked Bram again.

"Of course not" replied Arabella whispering.

"Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Hans. Me and this guy want to tell you, about a new clue from the Edo death case three days ago", Arabella answered a question from Mr. Hans.

"Bram, get that little paper out" Arabella said. Bram somewhat hurriedly immediately took out a small paper from inside his bag.

Then the man placed the little letter on the table in front of Mr. Hans and Mr. Steve.

Mr. Hans opened the small paper, and read it seriously.

"Where did you get this letter?", asked Mr. Hans.

"Ng. from the trash, sir"

Mr. Hans went back to researching the little letter.

"What classes and majors?", this time, it was Mr. Steve.

"Mathematics 1"

Arabella, Mr. Steve, and Mr. Hans looked at each other immediately.

"One class with Edo Frederick?"

"Certainly, sir"

"Hm.. do you have a relationship with Edo?"

"She, sir."

"Like what? Can you explain it in detail?"

"Hm. is not really a relationship of friends. He bullied me often".", replied Bram.

Arabella, Mr. Steve, and Mr. Hans turned to each other again.

"Calm down, sir. I'm not the killer, really. If I was the killer, there is no way I would dare to come to this police station", Bram continued with a serious look.

Mr. Hans nodded.

"Sure, I can see you saying it honestly"

"Edo has bullied you since when? Is there a reason for that?"

"Ng. since I first entered campus, he and his friends began to ridicule my appearance. And that was the first time I knew him. I don't understand clearly why he bullied me. But I guess, maybe because I'm the geeky and quietest in class", Bram class.

Mr. Hans nodded his head.

"alright. How about.."

"Excuse me all!"

The words of Mr. Hans were stopped by Christ who entered the room arrived. Arabella and the others reflexively turned their heads towards the man.

"There is murder again." said Christ with an irregular breath.

Upon hearing the news, everything spontaneously rounded the eyes.
